Double standard?
 

Joe Biden makes a few gaffes: DEMENTIA!
Trump talks nonsense almost every time he speaks, one gaffe after another: "That's just Trump".

Double standard?

Sure is, will they admit to it.


No way!

Here is a double standard for ya.

Say why you think so?

If one person is allowed to paint on a street to voice their opinion then why isn't another person able to do the same thing? Instead they are charged with a hate crime. Really? Not like they defaced private property.

The missing context is whether the text that was defaced was put there by the civic authorities, or with permission or license. If so, then the painting over it was indeed vandalism.

If that's the case do you think it would ever fly to paint "white lives matter" or "all lives matter" on the street. Then if black people defaced it would they be charged with a hate crime?

There was a permit for the BLM street mural. Details in this link to the Martinez Tribune (found in Waggs' link): https://martineztribune.com/2020/07/...ed-as-vandals/

Whether the act described in the link was a hate crime is questionable. Simply being obnoxious or racist is not a crime. As I understand hate crimes, there must be some at least implicit threat of harm because of race, and this act of vandalism might not reach that threshold. But if the BLM mural was appropriately on the street, the act described in the article is vandalism.

Do you see the painters in the article as engaged in an act of civil disobedience?

Ok so they had a permit. I still refer you to post #7. Do you think things would happen the same way if reversed?
